The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were duly noted. The Commissic ^licant was present for this Ver (Planning •' •'wn was also present at this t . Ass ianring and Zoning Administrator Gaffron informed the Plannii->. emission that the Berry's were bringing forth a revised proposal resulting from the January 17, 1989 Planning Commission Meeting. The house will now be located behind the 0- 75* setback line but will still require an average lakeshore setback variance. In the 73-250' zone, hardcover will be increased from 26.5% to 31.9%. Hardcover in the 0-75' zone on the south side of the property will remain at 25.1%; on the north side, 0-75* zone, hardcover will be reduced to zero. Chairman Kelley questioned the Berrys* proposal for a three- car garage. Mr. Berry clarified that he would be agreeable to add an attached three-car garage and remove the detached garage. Gaffron observed that such a proposal would offer a fairly even trade in hardcover. Kelley expressed his preference for this proposal. Planning Commissioner Cohen concurred, as did Hanson and Moos. Kelley recommended that approval of this application be conditioned upon the removal of the detached garage and straightening the driveway. The Berrys would then be able to build a three-car attached garage. Gaffron explained that only minor grading would be necessary with the revised proposal. This would be accomplished by raising the east end of the house approximately 2*. Grading in the 0-75* zone will be necessary to bring the old basement excavation back to a conforming grade. There were no comments from the public regarding this matter and the public hearing was closed. It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning Commissioner Hanson, to recommend approval of the hardcover variance as proposed: 0-75 (southside) 25.1%; 0-75 (northside) 0%; and 75-250 31.9%. The existing garage will be removed and a third stall added to the attached garage. The driveway is to be straightened. It was further recommended that a variance and conditional use permit allowing 4.11 ling and grading within 75* of Lake Minnetonka be approved for the driveway reconfiguration and grade restoration at the old basement, along with a 2* average lakeshore setback variance. The hardship in this application is that the applicant met the spirit of the revisions requested by the Planning Commission and has reduced the hardcover within the 0-75 ’ zone and the average lakeshore setback. Bellows questioned the elevation of the existing basement? Mr. 3erry replied that it was approximately 18". She
